The Art Station presents Tilt, a large-scale textile installation by Emily Cannell, which repurposes an ex-military parachute into a monumental shelter.
Resembling a mountainous landscape, a huge tent, or a settlement of roughly assembled shelters. Tilt, challenges the idea of textiles in contemporary art as being small scale, or handmade, by presenting an expansive environment which can be entered into.
Splashes of silver jersey are draped provocatively across this fabric landscape, and beyond. Whilst busted car bonnets, and disembodied bumpers are sensitively swathed in fabric, creating new sculptural forms which combine waste with treasured material.
Emily Cannell is an artist who lives in Ipswich, Suffolk, and makes work using sensual, functional, or recycled materials, draping them in landscapes, or combining them with curious objects and structures, to create new forms of sculpture.
